I'll admit I'm a bit confused about how MMD handles meta-tags in the document to control it's own behaviour. I tried to turn off id tag generation. [% USE MultiMarkdown %] [% FILTER multimarkdown %] heading_ids: 0 All I get is a line saying heading_ids: 0 in my output. So this is the first line being handed MMD, and a blank line after. Obvious I'm missing something in the syntax. For now I've hacked the default, as I think I prefer it that way. But I can see wehre overriding tags in the doc would be handy. (id tags IMHO should be used sparingly as a means of formatting block level elements) -- Sherwood Botsford Sherwood's Forests Warburg, Alberta T0C 2T0 http://www.sherwoods-forests.com 780-848-2548
